Thanks for that Wallcraft..

Yes the updatedtitle should be the last entry in the exthtype drop list.

*That* was the ticket Wallcraft. The GUI now with the "exth data", works perfectly!

Glad its working for you as intended now daffy4u.

I might look at modifying the GUI to process the book title as per this method when the book source is .azw. This will save having to know you need to play around with the updatedtitle exthtype. I might bug you via PM when I get that mod sorted for testing if you don't mind.

I'm so very happy. I like knowing how to use the command line but I much prefer a GUI. I am happy to help out and be your guinea pig anytime.

Thanks again, so very much.

Here are the results of v16. The original title of the book is "Bite".

In the pics 1 and 2, I forgot and used the "exth data" box to name the file "Don't Bite".

In pics 3 and 4, I *did not* use the "exth data" box and named the book "I'll Bite".

The last pic is from my Kindle where both titles showed up correctly. IT WORKS!!!!!

When converting an AZW file with the Book Title field updated, the GUI also updates the exthytype 'updatedtitle' with the same details. On Kindles the 'updatedfile' field overides the 'longtitle' field info.

Thanks to wallcraft for pointing us in the right direction in regard to this.

Big thankyou to daffy4u for testing this latest version.

I'm jealous. My GUI mobi2mobi still won't work. No pretty pictures in the cmd prompt version.

cheers

Vista or XP?

Edit: The previous tests for v16 was with Vista. I just tried XP and it works as well. The time I changed the title "Night Shift" to "Day Shift".

I wonder what the intention of this field is and if it works on other readers. If it does not work on other readers the correct solution would be to remove the updatedtitle field.

Source code for v0.16 has been added to the first page. Tidied up the first page info and removed old versions of the GUI.

I just got a report of success from someone on the Amazon Forums. Your fan club should be forming soon.
